Dream of:
17 February 2005 (2) "A Witty Lawyer"As I was walking out of a courthouse in Dallas, I was joined by
Danny DeVito (probably in his mid 40s), dressed in a white suit. He was an attorney. We walked along and talked. He told me he had been handling a criminal case and had gotten six years of jail for his client in a plea bargain. According to the plea bargain, his client wouldn't have to stay in jail all the time, but could come and go.I could hardly believe that prisoners in Dallas county would be able to come and go to jail. DeVito explained that the law which allowed this was not well known.
I was thinking of practicing some criminal law myself. Obviously there were many hidden little areas of the law like that with which I was unfamiliar.
DeVito said he was retired, but he still practiced law when he felt like it. I thought he must be in his 60s, even though he only looked as if he were in his 40s.
I thought how I myself was semi-retired; but I was thinking of coming out of retirement. Maybe DeVito and I could even work together. Perhaps I could work in his law office. Since he was retired, maybe I could take on some of the excess work. But I didn't' say anything.
We continued walking and he began talking about his personal life. he mentioned some women he was dating. He seemed to know a great many people. I thought I would enjoy getting to know him on a personal level. I thought I would need to be witty around him because it sounded as if he associated with witty people. I thought I could handle it. I could be witty if I had to. The more I thought about it, the more I liked the idea of practicing law with him.
